With Remembrance Sunday falling this year on 11th November itself, we are expecting even larger than usual numbers at our service.
Last year we trialled an ‘overflow’ in the Boys’ Sunday School so that, once the church is full, anyone else is directed to a comfortable seat and a chance to join in the service. The full sound of the service is relayed over and a board set up to replicate the names of those on the War Memorial, along with images shown on a screen during the service. We join in exactly the same service – and the same sense of reverence and quiet is kept – along with hearty joining in of the hymns, prayers and responses.
If you haven’t been to this service for a while because you’ve struggled to find a seat, why not try this year? You may even prefer to opt for the Sunday School - the padded seats, more elbow room and heating!
Once the church is full, everyone else will be directed across to the Sunday School.
